iQoo Z9 Lite 5G design revealed; launch in India on this date
iQoo Z9 Lite 5G will soon be launched in the Indian market. The company has confirmed the launch date of the smartphone in the country and has also revealed its design. The upcoming handset is tipped to be a rebranded Vivo T3 Lite 5G. It will be joining the existing iQoo Z9 5G series models in the country, including iQoo Z9 5G and iQoo Z9x 5G that were launched in March and May this year respectively.
iQoo Z9 Lite 5G India Launch
The iQoo Z9 Lite 5G will launch in India on July 15, the company has revealed. iQoo India CEO Nipun Marya (@nipunmarya) confirmed the news in an X-post and shared a promotional poster showing the rear panel design of the upcoming device.
iQoo Z9 Lite 5G Design
The rear panel of the iQoo Z9 Lite 5G can be seen with a rectangular camera module at the top-left corner. Two camera sensors in two separate circular units are arranged vertically within the island. The LED flash is placed next to the camera sensors. The phone appears in a green hue with a marble-like patterned finish.
The design also resembles that of the Vivo T3 Lite 5G, which was unveiled in India on June 27.
iQoo Z9 Lite 5G Features, Price Range (Expected)
Since it was previously suggested that the iQoo Z9 Lite 5G would be a rebranded Vivo T3 Lite 5G and the design reflects the alleged similarity, there is a high chance that they share similar features.
The upcoming iQoo handset could feature a 6nm octa-core MediaTek Dimensity 6300 SoC, a 5,000mAh battery and an IP64-rated build. The iQoo Z9 Lite could feature a 6.56-inch 90Hz HD+ LCD display, an AI-assisted 50-megapixel dual camera setup on the rear and an 8-megapixel selfie shooter.
The phone is said to be iQoo’s “first entry-level 5G phone”. Hence, it is likely to be cheaper than the iQoo Z9 Lite 5G and iQoo Z9x 5G, which cost Rs. 19,999 and Rs. 12,999 respectively.
Notably, the Vivo T3 Lite 5G carries a price tag of Rs. 10,499 and Rs. 11,499 in India for the 4GB + 128GB and 6GB + 128GB variants.
